When you first start looking for homes in Ashland Oregon you may find some “steals” on the Web. Homes that are advertised as handyman’s specials. It is very important to look at the neighborhood when looking at these houses. If the homes surrounding the house in question are well maintained and it is a nice neighborhood, then you should calculate what it will take to improve the home to a comparable standard. If the cost of the fixer-upper and the cost of the home improvements is still under the median cost of other houses in the neighborhood and you have the skills or the cash to do the repairs, then buying a fixer-upper might be a good investment. You can then make the house into your home!

However, beware of homes that are extremely cheap in neighborhoods that are in a decline. The home’s price may be not only a reflection of the condition of the house, but of the declining neighborhood. This is where a Ashland Real Estate agent who is an expert in Relocation to Ashland Oregon can help you evaluate whether the purchase will be a sensible investment for you. Click on the FREE “Relocation to Ashland Oregon” real estate information package. One of our Ashland Oregon Real Estate agents will contact you to help with your relocation to Ashland Oregon.

Whatever you do, if you are considering buying a fixer-upper home, make sure you have it inspected by a qualified home inspector. Place a contingency clause in the contract subject to approval by you of improvement estimates. Repairs that you guess may take $10,000 may end up costing twice that! Make sure that before you close you have the necessary skills and assets to turn the house into a home within your budget! Click on the link above and our New Quest City Ashland Real Estate agent can help you with your relocation to Ashland Oregon by providing guidance and expert advice on every process of the purchase.

FINANCING A FIXER-UPPER. Some mortgage lenders will allow you to close on the home with a construction loan and then place permanent financing on the home as soon as the repairs are made. This gives you the freedom to put your cash down on the home to benefit from reducing or eliminating Private Mortgage Insurance without having to come up with additional cash to do the improvements. Your New Quest City Ashland Oregon Relocation Realtor can help you find a local mortgage company that can help you with a construction loan.

Ashland is a city in Jackson County, Oregon, near Interstate 5 and the California border, and nestled in the south end of the Rogue Valley. It was named after Ashland County, Ohio, point of origin of Abel Helman and other founders, and secondarily for Ashland, Kentucky, where other founders had family connections. It officially became a town with the name Ashland Mills in 1855. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 19,522. It is the home of Southern Oregon University and the nationally renowned Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Ashland is also remarkable for being very politically liberal. It gave the hypermajority of its vote to Democrat John F. Kerry in the 2004 Presidential election. This potentially makes it more Democratic than Portland, and more Democratic than any other city in Oregon and neighbouring Washington outside of Seattle, Washington, which cast 80.61% for Kerry compared to Ashland's 80.60%. -- Source: Wikipedia.com

Dec 13, 2008 -- When you're a real estate agent, advocating the sale of a house through a real estate office rather than by an owner is an expected no brainer. But to suggest that an owner is likely to overprice the property ignores the fact that so do agents. -- RESPOND
